How to Install a Panduit Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU)

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for qualified personnel to install a Panduit Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) into a datacenter rack or cabinet, covering mounting, grounding, and connecting to a power source.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

#2 Phillips screwdriver, T10 Torx screwdriver, T20 Torx screwdriver, 2.5mm hex key Allen wrench

Supplies needed:

Ground bonding cable, Cage nuts (for horizontal PDU mounting), Mounting screws (if not pre-installed)

  1. Mount the PDU to the Rack

    Secure the PDU to the datacenter rack or cabinet. For vertical PDUs, insert the pre-installed mounting buttons into the keyhole slots on the rack's mounting bracket and tighten with a #2 Phillips screwdriver to 3.0Nm. For horizontal PDUs, first install cage nuts at the desired U location on the front and rear RETMA rails, then screw the PDU's mounting bracket ears into these cage nuts. For high power horizontal PDUs, also secure front mounting brackets to the PDU chassis using a 2.5mm hex key Allen wrench. Ensure the PDU is level and firmly attached, avoiding obstruction of airflow pathways.

  2. Ground the PDU

    WARNING: High leakage current. To reduce the risk of electric shock, ensure a reliable grounded connection. Connect a ground bonding cable from the external ground bonding point (earthing screw with star washer) on the PDU chassis to a grounding strip, bus bar, or known earthed reference terminal in the building. Ensure the conductor size meets national or local electrical codes (e.g., 14 AWG for up to 15A, 12 AWG for up to 20A).

  3. Connect the PDU to a Power Source

    WARNING: A risk of personal injury from electric shock and hazardous energy levels exists. Ensure the feed circuit breaker for the power source is OFF before connecting the PDU. Verify all circuit breakers on the PDU are set to ON. Connect the PDU's input power cord to an appropriately rated, grounded electrical outlet on a dedicated branch circuit, adhering to all local and national electrical codes. Once connected, turn the feed circuit breaker ON and wait for the PDU's operating system to load and the Main Menu to display.

  4. Rotate the Network Controller (Optional)

    If a specific orientation of the physical ports is desired, use a T10 Torx screwdriver to remove the two retaining screws on the network controller. Carefully disconnect the ribbon cable to prevent damage, then manually rotate the controller to the desired orientation. Reconnect the ribbon cable, ensuring correct orientation and avoiding crimping. Finally, re-install and torque the two screws to 2.2–3.1 lbf-in [0.25–0.35 N-M] to prevent metal deformation.

  5. Configure Dual Rated PDUs (If Applicable)

    For dual-rated PDUs, perform an additional Command Line Interface (CLI) configuration step to enable the Web interface to report the correct power capacity. Refer to the PDU's User Manual for specific CLI commands and detailed instructions.
